No. GB 123 3802 48 Registered Office Regency House 1–4 Warwick Street London W1B 5LT ISBN: 978 0 946121 29 8 Foreword As energy is the main ‘fuel’ for social and economic development, and since energy-related activities have significant environmental impacts, it is important for decision-makers to have access to reliable and accurate data in an user-friendly format. WEC has for decades been a pioneer in the field of energy resources and every three years publishes its flagship report Survey of Energy Resources (SER) which is released during the World Energy Congress. World Energy Resources (WER) 2013 is the new title of this publication and in fact is the 23rd edition for the Survey of Energy Resources. The survey is recognised worldwide as the premier source of information on global energy resources. Its reputation and value since the first edition in 1933 rest on two main factors: the study presents unbiased data and facts from an independent and impartial organisation, and the second factor is the sheer amount of resource and other key energy data together with analysis of technological, economic and environmental aspects assessed on global, regional and country levels. The 2013 report covers all fossil resources (coal, oil, both conventional and unconventional and gas, both conventional and unconventional), and the main renewable and transitional resources: peat, nuclear and uranium, hydro power, biofuels and waste, wind, solar, geothermal and marine energies. This edition also discusses energy efficiency as a strategic ‘energy resource’ because every unit of energy saved – a so-called ‘negajoule’ – is less expensive than producing the same amount of energy. Each of the 12 chapters is organised in three sections: an introduction covering technical, economic and market issues; detailed tables with global, regional and country data for proved reserves and production followed by country notes. The information comes from a variety of international sources, including the contributions of resource experts and data from the WEC Members Committees. The new structure of the energy sector post-market liberalisation and privatisation has made it difficult to access data and other information as companies and other organisations consider the majority of data as “confidential and commercially sensitive.” An extra feature of this 2013 survey is a review of the energy resources evolution over the past 20 years. The results of the current WEC work are compared to the projections made by the WEC in its milestone report, Energy for Tomorrow’s World, published in 1993. The 2013 Summary also looks at the main factors that have influenced the development of the global energy sector the most over the past two decades. The world around us has changed significantly over the past 20 years. The following principal drivers have been shaping energy supply and use: u sharp increase in the price of oil since 2001 after 15 years of moderate oil prices u financial crisis and slow economic growth with drastic reduction in energy consumption in large economies u shale gas in North America u Fukushima Daiichi nuclear accident u The volatile political situation in the energy supplying countries in the Middle East and North Africa, “The Arab Spring” u lack of global agreement on climate change mitigation u collapse of CO2 prices in the European Emissions Trading System u exponential growth in renewables, in particular in Europe due to generous subsidies for producers which can become a problem instead of an opportunity u deployment of ‘smart’ technologies u energy efficiency potential still remaining untapped u growing public concerns about new infrastructure projects, including energy projects and their impact on political decision-making process I am grateful to all those who have helped to produce the 2013 report, including Study Group Members, WEC Member Committees, leading energy institutions and individual experts. My special thanks for the coordination, guidance and management to the WEC Secretariat with excellent and highly professional contributions from Elena Nekhaev, Director of Programmes, and Paul Benfield, Senior Project Manager.

Therefore, it has become imperative to search for Li from other sources. Li in coal is thought to be one of the candidates. In this study, the petrology, mineralogy, and geochemistry of No. 21 coal from the Hebi No. 6 mine, Anhe Coalfield, China, was reported, with an emphasis on the distribution, modes of occurrence, and origin of Li. The results show that Li is enriched in the No. 21 coal, and its concentration coefficient (CC) value is 6.6 on average in comparison with common world coals.

  • Mineral Facilities of Asia and the Pacific," 2007 (Open-File Report 2010-1254)
    Table1.—Attribute data for the map "Mineral Facilities of Asia and the Pacific," 2007 (Open-File Report 2010-1254). [The United States Geological Survey (USGS) surveys international mineral industries to generate statistics on the global production, distribution, and resources of industrial minerals. This directory highlights the economically significant mineral facilities of Asia and the Pacific. Distribution of these facilities is shown on the accompanying map. Each record represents one commodity and one facility type for a single location. Facility types include mines, oil and gas fields, and processing plants such as refineries, smelters, and mills. Facility identification numbers (“Position”) are ordered alphabetically by country, followed by commodity, and then by capacity (descending). The “Year” field establishes the year for which the data were reported in Minerals Yearbook, Volume III – Area Reports: Mineral Industries of Asia and the Pacific. In the “DMS Latitiude” and “DMS Longitude” fields, coordinates are provided in degree-minute-second (DMS) format; “DD Latitude” and “DD Longitude” provide coordinates in decimal degrees (DD). Data were converted from DMS to DD. Coordinates reflect the most precise data available. Where necessary, coordinates are estimated using the nearest city or other administrative district.“Status” indicates the most recent operating status of the facility. Closed facilities are excluded from this report. In the “Notes” field, combined annual capacity represents the total of more facilities, plus additional

  • The Case for Mine Energy – Unlocking Deployment at Scale in the UK a Mine Energy White Paper
    The Case for Mine Energy – unlocking deployment at scale in the UK A mine energy white paper @northeastlep northeastlep.co.uk @northeastlep northeastlep.co.uk Foreword At the heart of this Government’s agenda are three key priorities: the development of new and innovative sources of employment and economic growth, rapid decarbonisation of our society, and levelling up - reducing the inequalities between diferent parts of the UK. I’m therefore delighted to be able to ofer my support to this report, which, perhaps uniquely, involves an approach which has the potential to address all three of these priorities. Mine energy, the use of the geothermally heated water in abandoned coal mines, is not a new technology, but it is one with the potential to deliver thousands of jobs. One quarter of the UK’s homes and businesses are sited on former coalfields. The Coal Authority estimates that there is an estimated 2.2 GWh of heat available – enough to heat all of these homes and businesses, and drive economic growth in some of the most disadvantaged communities in our country. Indeed, this report demonstrates that if we only implement the 42 projects currently on the Coal Authority’s books, we will deliver almost 4,500 direct jobs and a further 9-11,000 in the supply chain, at the same time saving 90,000 tonnes of carbon. The report also identifies a number of issues which need to be addressed to take full advantage of this opportunity; with investment, intelligence, supply chain development, skills and technical support all needing attention.
